“apply the "4-E (And 1-P) Framework'' for hiring that I've found consistently effective, year after year, across businesses and borders. The first E is positive energy. It means the ability to go, go, go—to thrive on action and relish change. The second E is the ability to energize others, and inspire them to take on the impossible. The third is edge, the courage to make tough yes-or-no decisions. The fourth E is execute—the ability to get the job done. Then I look for that final P, passion—a heartfelt, deep and authentic excitement about work. ~ Jack Welch”

“You Snooze, You Lose
Study after study shows that the most successful people are decisive and quick to act. They do not procrastinate, over-analyze, waffle or agonize over decisions. They are able to make quick decisions because they are certain, clear and congruent in their beliefs (such as values), purpose and vision. When a person is clear, centered and developed, right decision and action are easy. It does not mean their decisions always work out, but they are just as decisive in cutting their losses or changing course when a previous decision turns out to be poor.”

“Most of us are caught in the insidious cycle of “waiting to be happy and fulfilled.” “When I am making $300,000 a year I will be happy and fulfilled…”  “When the kids are out of college I will be happy and fulfilled…” “etc. etc., etc…” This is dysfunctional and results in perpetual dissatisfaction and a poorly lived life. Life is not about the destination. It is about the journey. The moment by moment life we create and experience.”

“Sure, we all want more money, but why? It’s not the actual green stuff we want. It’s the peace. The security. The freedom. The adventure. The impact or contribution we can have. We want money because it can help us satiate the seven primary needs: certainty, contribution, connection, stimulation, significance, expression and growth.”
